| Aversbeschreibung | Central portrait of Archbishop Wulfred facing forward, depicted in a simplified, stylized Anglo-Saxon manner within a beaded inner circle. The bust is unadorned and schematic, with linear facial features characteristic of early ninth-century English ecclesiastical coinage. A beaded border frames the portrait, with a circular outer legend reading the archbishop's name and title surrounding the inner circle. The design reflects the portrait penny tradition reintroduced under Archbishop Wulfred at the Canterbury mint. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Wulfred's tenure as Archbishop of Canterbury was marked by an unusually bitter dispute with King Coenwulf of Mercia over the control of Kentish monasteries — a conflict that saw Wulfred suspended from his archiepiscopal functions for several years. These coins belong to the period after that suspension was lifted, when Wulfred had reasserted enough authority to strike in his own name again. The association with 'Baldred' almost certainly reflects Baldred of Kent, the last Kentish sub-king, who was expelled by Egbert of Wessex around 825.
The political timing is tight. Egbert's conquest effectively ended Mercian dominance over Kent within months of this issue.
